Piedmont Region VoIP Pilot Project
• A Different Approach
Public/Private Partnership- The project is a long term multi-phase regional pilot
spearheaded by the City of Danville, VA. and Cisco Systems Inc. with regional MPLS links provided by Sprint/Nextel
- Additional technology provided by Raytheon (JPS Communications)

Piedmont Region VoIP Pilot Project
• Problem- The City of Danville is located on the border with North
Carolina- Crime committed on the Virginia side of the border often
results in the pursuit of offenders into North Carolina• Communications Problem
- Disparate radio systems negatively impact:• Officer-to-Officer Communications• Officer-to-Dispatch Communications• Command and Control

Piedmont Region VoIP Pilot Project
• Solution- Danville Police Department and their technology partner
established a Voice over Internet Protocol interoperability solution using a dedicated IP network and an emerging VoIP software solution
• Capabilities- Officer-to-Officer Communications
• Disparate Radio Systems interconnected via IP network
- Dispatch-to-Dispatch• Integration of console equipment to IP network resulted in a VoIP
“Intercom”
- Command and Control• Remote access from any voice enabled IP device (PC or Phone)

Piedmont Region VoIP Pilot Project
• Implementation Challenges - Equipment
• Old technology (DC control, independent voter equipment, consoles)
- Personnel• Loss of trained personnel• Radio technicians unfamiliarity with IP networks – AND-• IP technicians unfamiliarity with land mobile radio equipment

Piedmont Region VoIP Pilot Project
• Partnerships provide solutions• Donation of Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) standard
compliant equipment• Cooperation among two major technology
manufacturers to deploy the SIP based equipment• Establish an IP-to-IP connection between disparate land
mobile radio systems

Piedmont Region VoIP Pilot Project
• VoIP Standards for Public Safety- Department of Homeland Security – SAFECOM
• Roundtable on Public Safety Interoperability and Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP)
• Manufacturers Participating in the Standards Process – But More Importantly – Manufacturers building standards compliant equipment and employing standards based solutions in the field
• Meeting this week in Boulder, CO – VoIP technology provider “bakeoff”

Piedmont Region VoIP Pilot Project
• Project Status- Installation of equipment complete – but not without
challenges- System training by the technology partner underway
• NIJ CommTech Role- Provide assistance w/governance- Provide “honest broker” technology assistance- Observe and Document:
• Implementation Process &• Operational Exercise and Evaluation of technology
